Your next team would be the St. Louis Cardinals. See team rotation doc at

When lumberco was in the hospital last year, he missed 3 or 4 weeks, but then came back and resumed management of his many teams. My thought about waiting over the weekend is that he has not yet caused us to miss the Friday night deadline for this league.
I do expect that he will be either unwilling or unable to load his team in this league, too, for whatever reason -- in which case we will replace him. At the present time, though, he has not yet caused us any difficulty, since not all of the other teams are loaded, anyhow.
I guess my basic thinking is that if I were the missing manager -- in a league in which I had played many seasons -- I would hope the other managers would give me the opportunity to return, if I were able to do so.
